For the Record, here's some Masculine Card Ideas

Do you need to make some masculine cards that aren't nature, tools, or cars? The For the Record stamp set from Stampin' Up! is great for creating handmade cards for guys who aren't into that other "guy stuff." It's especially great if you have a music lover to create for. 

These card ideas are perfect for anyone - men or women! You could easily mask out the heart in the center of the card if you wanted. These three card layouts use the same color combination of Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, and Pool Party. I love the tone-on-tone effect!

I shared how to make one of these cards during my regular Thursday Night Live event this week. If you missed it, be sure to watch the replay for all of the little tips that I shared. 

I've canceled next week's Thursday Night Live event, but I hope you'll join me in 2 weeks on April 28, when I'll be sharing how to make some more awesome handmade cards.

​So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Birthday Card Idea

Here is a great birthday card for a music lover. I stamped the record in Memento on Pool Party cardstock. Then, I stamped the record multiple times in Coastal Cabana. I colored the heart in the center with Bermuda Bay Stampin' Blends. 

I layered the Pool Party on Basic Black. Then, I layered it on a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock that I embossed with the Hive 3D embossing folder. I stamped the sentiments and cut them out. Then, I added them to the card front with dimensionals.

Simple Stamping Card Idea

On my last sample card design, I stamped the record on Basic White in Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, and Pool Party. I layered it on Bermuda Bay.

For the background of the card, I covered the card front with Coastal Cabana 6" x 6" patterned paper. Normally, I leave a border around patterned paper, but here, I covered the entire front of the card.

I colored the hearts in the center of each of the records with Pool Party Stampin' Blends. For a final touch, I added a little black and white baker's twine under the sentiment.
